Video of police instigating violence at a previously peaceful protest plus Jordan’s insights into the importance of what came AFTER the No Kings rallies.
I was in LA for #NoKings yesterday, as I'm sure many of you were.

I gathered some thoughts about what I saw, but more importantly what happened *after* the protest ended.

No foreign films, no NPR/PBS, no NEA funding for theater and music

Nothing to distract us from protesting!

The American Medical Association has a YouTube page, where they are doing daily updates on bird flu, TB, measles and other outbreaks, as the CDC is no longer allowed to do this.

Elon Musk and his 19-year-olds have now disrupted the approval of medical devices that save lives.

Every member of Congress bears a responsibility to stop this right now.

The GOP passed a budget resolution tonight that will gut Medicaid, SNAP, and other vital programs — as 60% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

Why? To finance more tax cuts for the top 1%.

We have socialism in this country for the rich, harsh capitalism for everyone else.

On Monday, USAID's IG warned that Trump's agency cuts have made it harder to root out fraud and abuse — and that nearly $500M in food was about to spoil due to Trump's foreign aid freeze.

On Tuesday, Trump fired him.

So much for transparency.

Trump and Musk: The Brothers Grift
When Trump was sworn in, Elon Musk's corporations were under more than 32 investigations conducted by at least 11 federal agencies.

Most of the cases are now closed or likely to be closed soon, and the federal agencies are being defanged by DOGE.

Funny how that works, huh?

New bill to let The Mad King rename Greenland “Red, White, and Blue land”???
Google Maps has officially changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico to "Gulf of America" after Trump's executive order. And a new Republican bill would let Trump rename Greenland "Red, White and Blueland." Still no word on lowering the cost of groceries, however.

Federal judges orders HHS, CDC, and FDA to restore “by no later than 11:59 pm” today their websites and datasets to pre-January 30th status.
